Depending on the pipe that it is it will probably be a main dealer job, get on to G spec and tell him which hose that's split and he'll get a replacement for a lot less that'll what you'd pay here. Quick turnaround on parts too

Dont really wanto go to main dealer to get it fixed looks simple to do just really awkward to get at? Ill be getting the pipe off nissan on monday.....i ve heard its only 25e brand new ......just get my mechanic to have a go at it...@ sam did you change that hose yourself?
 
One of the hoses is discontinued, so the only option is a silicon equivalent.

I do everything myself, I dont trust any garages to work on my cars.

That looks like the one....mines split at the front towards where it goes into the engine....SAM can u tell me how you got to the hose? What you removed etc? And did u hav it on a ramp?
 
Not 100% sure but I think I've got this problem on the Autech. I've not had the chance to look at it from underneath but I have coolant leaking from the back of the engine. The engine's inlet manifold is positioned lower than vzr and gti making it very difficult to see.

Any chances of it being anything else?
 
Happened to my VZR a few weeks ago...small right angled rubber pipe had a split in it...easy enuff to get at from under the car...couldnt get another one at nissan so got this stuff called fixx it...its rubber tape that seals rubber pipes , wrapped it around the hole in the pipe n its grand now
